The idea that everything can and should be dealt with behind closed doors dovetails with Romney's general unwillingness to engage with the press -- he seldom gives interviews to anyone other than sympathetic Fox News anchors, and only took three questions during his three-nation foreign trip. But it's possible to freeze out the media and still communicate, although Garance Franke-Ruta laid out why a "no-comment campaign" is a risky strategy. Either way, it's not possible to deal with policy matters in the same way.
